I had been reading the odd page of this one at the bookshop for a while, when I thought I should just give in and get it out from the library. Oddly, there was only a large print edition, which felt strange to read at first.
Gabrielle Giffords was an Arizona Congresswoman who was shot at a meeting she was holding, with another six people killed and many more injured. Her story is told by her husband, Mark Kelly an astronaut who has a team to take up in space not long after her injury.
Gabby has made a remarkable recovery, with 95% of most head injury patients dying, to see her walking and talking now shows how much the rehab has helped to bring her back to a new normal. It certainly helps to put your own bad day into perspective.
3/5
